I am getting this too. DrumsUI works as far as I can tell, but running Profit doesn't seem to skin ANYTHING.

Originally posted by edepha I just bought a new computer and downloaded eq2 on it, and profit UI. The updater runs as it should, and there are no error messages, but when the game starts it runs using the default UI. I made sure the .ini file was switched to profit, that my file paths were correct, and even tried switching it to Profit in game. The game just does not use the profit UI or the EQ2MAPS.

I have always loved profit UI, as it does everything that I need it to.

I had to re install the game recently and I am getting a "reception thrown" error - any suggestions?

I tried following the instructions below to reset the shortcuts. Unfortunately, I have Win 7 and can't run the updater by clicking LAUNCH because I can't figure out how to do that with administrator rights.

Updating your Java runtime can render the shortcuts you use to start the updater non-functional or remove them entirely. This is a known behaviour of Java that unfortunately cannot be prevented by us.

The easiest way to fix this is to start the updater from http://updater.pala.de by clicking "Launch" on that page, and then in the updater itself go to "Settings" -> "Updater" -> "Reset Shortcuts", which will restore working shortcuts to their default locations (if you were using shortcuts from a custom location you need to manually overwrite them with the new shortcuts).

I am still getting this error. Using Chrome and I.E. I installed manually and the UI won't show. Ran EQ2 Maps before and after. Modified EQ2.ini made it to executable's folder. I updated Java. Installed the developer kit because someone said that it was a fix. I don't get it. I need a UI. I even tried Fetish nightfall and it Fetish failed.

i just got home off the road after 3 months, and went to run the updater, and it wouldnt run, and it was also removed off my desktop when i tried to run it, and now i cant find the program, and when i try to redownload it, i get an error saying the browser cant find the page anymore

If you are trying to launch the Profit Updater and you keep getting the page pop up from google saying that the page is unable to load then you need to go to sun.com and download the latest version of java (Java Development Kit (JDK) 7) for your o/s base, if you are running win 7 and above then you will need to download the x86 edition, once you download it, open and install it on to your system.

Here is the page for platforms that are supported with Java so that you can download the correct file that you will need

if you still get the error when trying to webstart it then you need to make sure that you have java enabled, if you are running internet explorer or google chrome, you will get a pop-up at the bottom sayingthat this content needs additional java content enabled and click enable.

after this try launching it again from webstart, you should load just fine now (though you might need to reset your EQ2 directory)

Im running win 8 and can't get profit to work. I get to the launcher page click it, get a save or open gui click open and it takes me back to the same gui opening a new tab in brouser. If i click save it goes round and round with the gui . Can't get anywhere. Any help would be awesome ty
